147 – If you want to keep a mirror & card with your tefillin, may I humbly suggest you buy a plastic bag for your velvet tefillin zekel. You can put the mirror & card between the plastic and the velvet bag. This way, you can be sure that the tefillin (velvet) bag holds only tefillin as it is a d’var bekdusha. The poskim warn against keeping extraneous things with the tefillin inside the velvet bag. The halacha goes so far as to say that Rash”i tefillin can not be kept in Rabbenu Tam tefillin bag (& vice versa) once designation has been set.
